Humans think because software evolves faster than hardware.

Life took billions of years to evolve; language took thousands (Marins & Boeckx, 2019).

There are levels of collaboration within our minds; levels at which we are more or less aware of all of our aspects. The level that joins awareness of self, body, and emotion is what I call the soul. This is not a form of expression, it’s a form of awareness. It rarely speaks; it participates.

What is our species, anyway?
Intellect is sense without sensation
Sentience confers the power to change
If we disconnect from intellect, we can connect to soul
